Existential/Humanistic therapists in Garden Acres, California CA
Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
I approach therapy from a humanistic and spiritual perspective meaning I believe you are a whole and complete person who is struggling with some aspect of their life. If you need a non-judgmental champion on your side, Dr. Chad is here for you. I firmly believe that your challenges are growth opportunities, not punishments. The struggles are opportunities to bring compassion into your life. One of my therapy gifts is helping you see the lessons or blessings (or both) you have faced while empowering you to live up to your greatness while nurturing your capacity for compassionate self-love. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you better understand yourself.

Erica McArn
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am a licensed psychologist who is passionate about igniting purpose and passion in others, helping clients learn and grow on their journey through life, loss, and personal transition/change. I have a diverse background, both personally and professionally, that, I believe, allows me to understand and connect with people from all walks of life.
I utilize an eclectic approach that allows me to individualize my work with clients and develop treatment plans specific to the needs of each person that are goal-oriented and fits each individual lifestyle. In addition, my practice integrates a holistic and humanistic perspective focused on a model of HOPES (Honoring, Overcoming, Persevering, Empowering, Self).

Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?

Dr. Marco Fekrat
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist working with individuals and couples. My specialties include relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, sexuality and working with the LGBTQ population. My goal is to help you better balance yourself in the present, day to day, and dive deep with you to understand the root cause. Truly effective therapy, in my view, happens when we are ready to look deeply and critically at our current situation, ready to make sustainable, and practical changes.
My work is active and focused. I will actively listen while utilizing direct questioning to fully understand core beliefs. I believe therapy can be both fun and rewarding. My goals are for you to regain better control of your symptoms and achieve your highest level of functioning as quickly as possible.
We’ll work together to help you re-ignite your passions, build healthier relationships, and uncover a more authentic self. I look forward to meeting you via a free phone/video consultation about what it is you see yourself as needing and deciding together if we would be a good fit.
